Well, today is the 22nd years which i am borned as a human! Means I am 22 years old already! Gosh!
As exam is around the corner, I did not have any huge birthday party for myself this year, however, i still feel happy as i managed to receive a lot of birthday wishes both physically and intangibly from my friends. Bellow are the list of wishes i got before or on my birthday:
1. On 8 of March i received 5 birthday cards all the way from my friends in Malaysia. They are my beloved friends whom i knew since primary school, they are: Cheap Nee,DaTou, Kemo, Kam Mei, Jee San and MC (on the way). Bravo to their tremendous efforts, although my friend, Datou, bought me a "get well soon" card instead of a birthday card. - _ - . I hereby use this opportunity to express my appreciation to Cheap Nee for spreading the news around my friends in Malaysia which i reminded her to do so, few weeks ago. She had indeed done a great job.
Wishes around the world, could you identify which one is yours?
2. On the same day, my beloved friend surprised me with the first birthday present when we were having lunch in China town.
My first present, Yeng or not!
3. On the 9 of March, 12pm, besides receiving a lot of greetings on Msn, my two lovely housemate, Derrick and Jin, surprised me with a huge lovely birthday cake, together with a live birthday song sang by them. During the mini-celebration, mimi and thong joined us through the online conference where they later gave me a giant birthday card plus 2 marvelous presents! Special thanks to them! I really like the presents very much!

4. On the 10th, I managed to get more birthday wishes from Msn by me nudging my online friends with threat. Further, i received a postcard from Australia by KeXiou, my SAM friend + karaoke partner whom i gave my UK address last week to give her a hint that my birthday is coming soon.
5. On the same day, my 2 housemates, Derrick, Jin insisted to bring me out for a dinner for a second round celebration. We then went to a Taiwanese restaurant which Tong recommended. I swear the food was just too awesome. Special thank to Derrick for accompany us despite he got exam tomorrow. Good luck Derrick.
Awesome Taiwanese food!!!
They got O Jian too! Yum
Thanks for the dinner!
6. Finally, just before my birthday ended, I received a song from a friend. It was a piano birthday song she invented and played in live. My heart nearly melt when i was listening to it. Thank god my heart did not actually melt, if not.....choi!
Birthday surprise!
That's all for my 22nd birthday. Besides wishing to pass my Bar exam, i hope all my family and friends will always stay healthy and happy. Thank you guys for all the wishes and presents, I really appreciate them very much!

Obviously, most of my birthday wishes are not obtained through violence and threat!
这此选举充分显示了马来西亚各个民族对政府的不满与愤怒,对于国阵长期对人民压迫,马来西亚人民终于用手中的一票对国阵大大声说: Enough is enough! 五年前,人民赋予国阵九十巴仙的国会议席,把国阵带到天堂,可惜,五年来国阵政府只手遮天,行政,司法滥权与贪污案不断上演,油价,物价连连上涨,巫统举剑等事件,弄得民怨沸腾,民不聊生。国阵从天堂到地狱的惨败下场可谓咎由自取,自取灭亡。我想此次选举结果应该可掛醒我们沉睡中的首相,如他再不觉醒,痛定思过,下次不但会再失州政权,就连中央政权也会拱手让人。
DAMN it! Today i just had my 6th exam out of 12! I seriously screwed it man! I am really preparing for the worst! Which is failing it! It is going to be my first time over my 4 years law study! The consequence of failing it is even worst! It means i will not be able to graduate in July! Damn it! Haizzzzz.
What to do! i can blame the lack of time in doing the question, i can blame the incapability of my lecturer in teaching me .... but i chose not to, because i know the i am the one that should be blamed. If i were to put more efforts in it things will be different, so i am the sole cause of the possible failure.
Anyhow, what has been done is done. I just need to accept the true fact, face it, solve it and then let it be! Just don't allow myself to repeat the mistake again. Moreover there is still hope! Cos the result is not out yet! Even if i failed, i still can resit the paper and graduate in October instead of July! So it is not the end of the world! So people, do pray for me!
Do not why suddenly miss home so much! This is my 3rd year in UK already, still i like penang more than UK. I miss my family, miss my friends, miss my house, miss my room, miss my bed, miss my car, miss my lucky (hopefully he is still alive), miss eating chakoeytiao, o jian...........
Dedicate the following song to myself: Home, Michael Buble
Another summer day Is come and gone away In Paris and Rome But I wanna go home Mmmmmmmm
Maybe surrounded by A million people I Still feel all alone I just wanna go home Oh I miss you, you know
And I’ve been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you Each one a line or two “I’m fine baby, how are you?” Well I would send them but I know that it’s just not enough My words were cold and flat And you deserve more than that
Another aeroplane Another sunny place I’m lucky I know But I wanna go home Mmmm, I’ve got to go home
Let me go home I’m just too far from where you are I wanna come home
And I feel just like I’m living someone else’s life It’s like I just stepped outside When everything was going right And I know just why you could not Come along with me But this was not your dream But you always believe in me
Another winter day has come And gone away And even Paris and Rome And I wanna go home Let me go home
And I’m surrounded by A million people I Still feel alone Oh, let go home Oh, I miss you, you know
Let me go home I’ve had my run Baby, I’m done I gotta go home Let me go home It will all right I’ll be home tonight I’m coming back home
Yes, the guy who just squeezed my cheek was Sir Ian Mckellen!
Sir Ian McKellen as Gandalf in the Lord of the Rings
It all begins by me and Derrick joining Jin's dining session in Inner Temple. I wrinkled up my forehead in perplexity when people around me started to shout that Sir Ian Mckellen is here, having drinking session with us before the dining started. It was quite shameful for me for not knowing him before i actually saw him. My immediate reaction after seeing him was like: Ohh!! the X men guy!!

During dining, I actually recalled from the conversation I had with my friends that the character he acted in X men is called "Magneto" and of course he is also famous of acting as "Gandalf" in the Lord of the Rings.

I swear he was just sitting behind me which my friends, derrick and Nori had direct, full view of him for the whole night! He was then asked by the Master Treasurer to give a speech which he then acted a Shakespeare play. Well, although he looks like an ordinary man in reality and i didn't really know what he was acting, but still, I must admit that his acting was just too stunning!

The best part had yet to come! After dining, we approached him to express our admiration towards him which he kindly responded to us. He shaked our hands ( his hand was quite thick), gave autograph to one of my friends, Kim and even hug my housemate, Jin!! ( I am sure that Jin will spend her whole life talking about it). He then went out to have a smoke.
People were trying to approach him, but few with success.
When we were preparing to go home excitedly, he re-enterred the hall again and walked pass us. When he was walking pass me, he suddenly holds out both of his hands and squeezed my cheek tightly! It was so unexpectedly! It was indeed the highlight of the night. Thanks to Jin, without her invitation i would not be squeezed by him!

Those who does not know me well may descibe me as an unapproachable and quiet guy, however it is not totally the truth. If u put some efforts in knowing more about me, u will then discover the true me which may be a total contrast of ur first impression!~
